and it proceeds from the Vaiksta' 'I-principle'. From the 'I-principle' as dominated by the Tamas-attribute proceeds the set of Rudimentary substances. How so?

(152) Objection :—When all the necessary products
are brought about by the action of the Objection. The attributes of Sattva and Tamas only, have purposelessness of Passions done with the attribute of Rajas, which
serves no useful purpose. Answer :-“ And both of these from the Taijasa 'form
1 of the l.principle" i. e., from the 'Taijasa Reply-Passion
Form', that is from the form abounding in necessary for urging the other the Rajas-attribute, proceed both, the 'set of Attributes to
eleven' as also the set of rudimentary subaction
stances.' Even though there is no separate product from the Rajas-attribute exclusively by itself, yet (it is a necessary factor. as) the Sattva and Tamas attributes are, by themselves, absolutely inert and as such do not per. forın their functions at all; it is only when they are energised and moved by the Rajas-attribute, that they perform their functions; thus the Rajas-attribute is instrumental in the evolving of both the sets of products mentioned above, through the exciting of activity of the other two attributes, Sattva and Tamas. Thus it is not true that the Rajasattribute serves no useful purpose.
In onder to describe the 'set of eleven' abounding in the Sattva-Attribute, the author first describes the ten external sense-organs.
